CIMMYT isn’t the only organization recognizing what would have been the 100th birthday of scientist and hunger fighter Dr. Norman E. Borlaug. There’s about one month to go until Dr. Borlaug’s birthday on 25 March but the celebrations will continue throughout the year.

We’ve mapped them out below, based on this list compiled by the World Food Prize.
